Dr. WeskerWas the first SSN to be assigned in the US just 000-00-001?
SteveNo.
The original concept had the first 3 digits identifying a regional office that issued the number.
And no SSN has been issued with any group of digits having all 0’s
Fore more info Wikipedia is good at this kind of stuff.
jqubedI read stories from older university alumni from back when SSN served as student IDs where someone who issued gym uniforms or something like that would wow students by telling them where they were born when they’d tell him their SSN.
sygniusWhen I went to college early 2000’s, my SSN was printed directly on my student ID card. It was the unique ID that the university used for each student. Then like a year or two later, they required all the students to get new IDs without the SSN printed on them.
